Labor-Only vs. The Traditional Move
When most people think of a moving company, they picture a full-service crew that loads, drives, and unloads everything. This is known as local full-service.
Labor-only moving works differently. You handle the transportation—like a rental truck or PODS container—and we connect you with professional movers to load or unload your stuff.
While labor-only requires a bit more work on your end to coordinate all the details, it’s considerably less expensive.

The Cost of Moving in Fairfax, VA
In Fairfax labor-only moving help typically costs between $227.90 and $678.48.
If you’re tackling a smaller job, like unloading a PODS-style container, moving into a storage unit, or just need help with the heavy lifting, you can hire hourly moving labor for around $75.40 an hour.
The Cost of Labor-Only vs. Local-Full Service
Even after factoring in the cost of a rental truck, gas, and supplies, labor-only moving usually costs less than half of what you’d pay for local full-service. Full-service is definitely more convenient—but that convenience comes at a price.

I had a great experience with DMV Discount Moving & Cleaning. The crew showed up right on time, came ready to go, and got straight to work. It was really nice to see a father-son team—there was a great dynamic between them, and you could tell they take pride in their work. They were super careful with my stuff and really respectful of the space. I’d definitely hire them again!
They were great! They arrived in the window, and communicated beforehand so I knew exactly when they would arrive. They were personable and friendly. All of my things were moved efficiently and expertly loaded to make sure it all fit. Would definitely hire again!
The helpers were both on time and went to work right away getting our belongings into the container. The packer was amazing and was great at securing our belongings inside the container for secure shipment. I would highly recommend John and his team.
Alex and team did a great job! I appreciated their communication in both the days leading up to the move and day off. They were efficient and fun to work with. I appreciated the support in re-assembling some of my furniture and in making sure everything was where I needed it to be. Would definitely recommend!
Anthony and his two helpers Bishop and Dontrelle were awesome! Very friendly, efficient, and did everything I could have asked for part of my move. Very appreciative and would recommend them to anyone. Thanks guys!
Loved my guys who unloaded my Pod Friday. They were very good at placing everything in each room where it belonged. They were very respectful as they worked. I enjoyed having them in my new home. They were very careful not to damage anything as they carried items n boxes into the condo. Great job! Thank you.
The three movers, Mike, Jabran and Henry, were on time, worked incredibly hard and were patient with us as we had a number of last minute decisions about where the big pieces went. My wife and I really appreciated their attitude the whole time, cheerful and all in an already hot Saturday morning.
Bill and Yak were friendly and worked hard, carrying boxes and furniture up a flight of stairs efficiently and carefully. They were friendly and fast. They arrived late because their previous job took much longer than scheduled, but Moving With Pride called me in advance to give me a new ETA. They made my move smooth and stress-free and I'd use them again.
They were right on time!!!! I called for last minute help with loading my moving truck, they came with less than 24 hour notice The crew were respectful of my items and followed instructions perfectly!!! I highly recommend!
Great job packing my POD container and saved me a lot of room. In time and helpful with their ideas. I recommend to call these guys anytime you move. A Job Well Done. Thank you.
Alex and crew were great! They made the stress of moving easier and took care of things seamlessly. I really appreciate the help and would recommend him to family and friends.
They were incredibly punctual, worked very efficiently, and treated my possessions like their own. Would 100% use this service again if I had not just moved out of the area.
